Definitions
- the present invention relates to a vent cap and, more particularly, to a vent cap for a container or housing which accommodates a hydraulic operating medium, with the vent cap having a housing type cover including labyrinth walls, which cover is closeable by a base insert having a vent passage, with the vent cap being adapted to be mounted on a vent opening of the container or housing.
- a vent cap of the aforementioned type has been proposed wherein a cover and a base insert are made of a plastic material with the two parts being tightened non-rotatably together by a metal hexagonal insert.
- the base insert is provided with a gasket in order to protect a vent passage therein and the vent opening of the container or housing against a penetration of fluids or the like.
- a disadvantage of this proposed construction resides in the fact that, since the cover projects above an exterior wall of the container or housing in an operative position, there is a danger that the cover may accidentally or inadverently be loosened through an external intervention thereby resulting in the seal being broken and a leak occurring at the vent cap or cover.
- the aim underlying the present invention essentially resides in providing a vent cap arrangement which protects the seal of the vent cap against any inadverent external action on the cover.
- the housing type cover is rotatably mounted on the base insert of the vent cap.
- the base insert is provided at the end opposite the cover with tongues having barbed tips, which tongues are made of a plastic material and are radially compressible with respect to an axis of the base.
- the base insert may be provided with a circumferential groove located outside the cover, which groove serves to accept an annular seal.
- a bearing pin is provided which is coaxial with respect to the base axis with a hub of the base insert being rotatably mounted on the pin and also being firmly mounted in directions of the base axis.
- the bearing pin of the present invention may advantageously include a passageway which connects both with a vent passageway and with a chamber in the cover which includes the labyrinth walls.
- the bearing pin may include tongues provided with tips, which tongues are compressible radially under a spring tension with respect to the base axis, with the tips cooperating with matching stops on the hub in order to enable an immobilization in an axial direction.
- vent passage recess may be located eccentrically with respect to the base axis and the base insert may be provided with a central opening for a metal threaded nut, which nut is non-rotatably mounted on the cover.
- the nut is stationarily or non-movably mounted on the cover in the directions of the screw axis.
- the threaded nut may be provided at an end opposite the cover with a bearing pin for mounting a hub of the base insert.
- the hub of the base insert is preferably made of a plastic material and a free end of the bearing pin is provided with an annular bead.
- the threaded nut of the vent cap of the present invention may be provided, at an end opposite the bearing pin, with a mounting pin, with the mounting pin engaging in a recess in the cover.
- a receiving bore may be provided, with the receiving bore being located in a pin-shaped extension of the cover.
- the threaded nut of the vent cap of the present invention has a central bead between the bearing pin and the mounting pin with the bead being non-rotatably mounted in a recess provided in the cover.
- an end surface of the base insert located opposite the cover has a shorter distance with respect to the cover in the directions of the base axis then does an end surface of the threaded nut which is located opposite the cover.
- the end surface of the base insert located opposite the cover is provided with an annular groove concentric with respect to the base axis in order to accept of accommodate an annular seal.
- Another object of the present invention resides in providing a vent cap for containers or housings accommodating hydraulic operating substances which prevent a breaking of the seal of the vent cap due to an inadverent external action on a cover of the vent cap.
- Yet another object of the present invention resides in providing a vent cap for containers or housings accommodating hydraulic operating substances which is simple in construction and therefore relatively inexpensive to manufacture.
- Yet another object of the present invention resides in providing a vent cap for containers or housings accommodating hydraulic operating substances which ensures the existence of an adequate seal under all conditions.
